Nucleic acid purification is an essential step in many molecular biology workflows, including enzyme digests, transformation, electrophoresis, RT-PCR, RT-qPCR and library preparation. Monarch kits enable quick and easy purification of high-quality DNA and RNA, suitable for direct use in a variety of downstream applications. Recover pure, intact DNA and RNA in minutes with fast, user-friendly protocols and optimized buffer systems, and focus your time on the experiments that will drive your research forward.

Monarch kits are all designed with sustainability in mind; whenever possible, kits and components are made with significantly less plastic and are packaged with responsibly-sourced, recyclable packaging.

The Monarch Total RNA Miniprep Kit is optimized for use with a wide variety of sample types, so that one convenient kit can serve your RNA purification needs.

Monarch DNA purification kits are available for plasmid miniprep, reaction cleanup, and gel extraction. Monarch DNA columns are designed without a retaining ring, eliminating the potential for buffer carryover and enabling low-volume elution.

Kits are packaged with responsibly-sourced and recyclable packaging and printed with water and soy-based ink
